DRN Commerce Inc. (DRN), Canada's leading provider of Internet-based collaborative commerce solutions for the financial services industry, today announced that it has completed a successful integration of its CollectLink technology for CUETS, the Regina-based national MasterCard^® service provider for hundreds of credit unions, caisses populaires and other clients. Wide acceptance of DRN's ASP recovery management system was the driving factor for this upgrade.

"The initial attraction of the CollectLink solution was its comprehensive reporting capabilities and enhanced portfolio management of external service providers," said Ellie Rock, Executive Vice President, Credit and Chief Credit Officer for CUETS. "From the start of the integration project, it was clear DRN brings much more to their clients than a technology solution. Their knowledge of collection industry processes and assistance in creating new strategies is remarkable. Their customer support has been outstanding."

"With five new clients positioned to integrate CollectLink in Q4 of 2005 we have continued to enhance our solution and support team to assure outstanding client satisfaction and increased functionality." said Peter Young , Vice President Operations for DRN.
